This was my VERY FIRST pyrography project! It was interesting to burn and paint!

Thank you! I have been drawing for about 16 years and one day I just decided to start applying those skills to pyrography. Now it’s one of my favorite things to do.

That looks great. Painting it really makes it pop. Nice work.

I like this it reminds me of some Asian art.

This is my favorite.
Maybe because of the added color.
It’s very hard to convey color in pyrography but you are doing really well.

Thank you! I use Watercolor and I barely and any water. Then I apply it with a q tip or my finger so that I can really rub it into the grain. Then I just spray it with a finishing spray.
